Safety, trust & environment

When I am in a clients home I treat it with the same respect as my own. I will ensure that your belongings are not touched or read through and I have a bachelors in social work so confidentiality is key for me. I will ensure all rules are followed as laid out by you and will make sure that your best friend is never put in a dangerous situation. I believe communication is key and that each client and their pet deserve the best care possible.

Information Ryan W. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preference and do not discriminate! I love dogs/cats who love being lazy and dogs/cats who love to play! No matter the breed any dog/cat is for me!

A typical day

I live ten minutes away from two different parks and will visit them frequently so that your pup can have some fun! I also love to hike and would love an active dog to hike with or a calm buddy to take a slow stroll. I also enjoy a backyard frisbee throw or hanging out with them on the couch. I am always happy to do what makes your best furry friend happy!

Prior Vet Tech: Cats & Dogs

Pet care experience

Hello! I have previous experience as a Veterinary Tech experienced with medication disbursement and medication management. I have experience as a professional dog walker, walking dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes. I also have experience volunteering and working as a kennel attendant at Liberty Humane Society, New Jersey where I worked with rescued animals. I enjoy going to the dog park, playing with dogs and their toys, and I always have an extra cookie in my pocket for my furry friends! I have a MaineCoon at home who is my best friend and would love to treat your furry friend like family! I am available weekends and during the week I am busy working in the IT field. I am all about pet safety and committing to a playful, happy, and safe environment for your best friend. If you are interested in getting to know me and have me meet your family member please reach out!

Ryan is one of the best people I know. He’s taken care of my two cats and is so sweet and responsible with them, and they love him! Ive also spent time with him while house sitting for a dog and he was great with the dog as well. He also knows how to come into my house with no judgement as to its cleanliness. Hiring Ryan is a great choice!

Ryan watched our 1.5 year old French Mastiff this past weekend when we had to go out of town. Right from the first text message, our meet and greet to our last meeting he is one helluva professional and kind hearted guy. He has a genuine love for dogs and you can tell right away. He is super accommodating too and is willing to go that extra mile to make sure you and your dog feel extremely comfortable. I know for a fact now that he is going to be our goto dog sitter whenever we are out of town. My dog had a great time with Ryan and his 6 year old and I bet he wanted to go back to them as soon as we got him home.
